    I am thoroughly impressed and jealous!!!! Beautiful collection!

    I have a cross fountain pen that's been unusable for 3 years. I used it all the time and kept fresh ink in it at all times. Now it doesn't write. I've soaked the nib in warm water and even drawn fresh ink up into the converter... Advice? I don't wanna buy a new nib cause they are spendy. :(

    Great, someone to help with the inundation. Kind of hard to pick 5. All the pens in the front row are in my daily rotation, they all have custom nibs. The orange one in the middle and the black one on the right side are Shaeffer NoNonsense and cost about $2 bucks when they were being sold, and I try and collect them. Watched an episode of "Hoarders" one night and the woman threw out a 50 gallon barrel full of them. I cried for a week.

    Only one tornado? We get them all the time.. guess that's why we have basements.

    We get them all the time too. This particular one, which landed directly on us, was one of many that day and it was the strongest. 27 people died and my wife new a lot of them. The only thing that saved my life was the "old" cyprus and brick construction, and 2 brand new doors. And someone looted the doors.
